Hi,
Does it work OK if you select the "extra rinse" option?
If it does during the extra rinse cycle, then it seems that there's a problem with cycle timer circuit #18 - i.e. forced low agitate during the normal rinse cycle.
Don't know the washer but looking at the tech sheet for the model it could be a worn out timer cam or dirty contact perhaps. (See Table switch position 12 - B - forced low motor - 18, positions 20-25 & 55-60 - forced low agitate rinse cycle, as shown in images from the tech sheet below.)

Do not attempt to dis-assemble the timer to try and fix it. It is an electro-mechanical clockwork mechanism and you'll have cams and contacts everywhere and there are no individual internal replacement components available anyway. You have to replace the entire unit.
You could try disconnecting the power to the washer and then accessing the timer and liberally spraying an electronic contact cleaner (do not use WD40 or similar as they leave residues) into the timer through any suitable opening in the case of the timer. Allow it to completely dry (read directions on spray can label) and then check how it goes.
If you decide to replace the timer the part number is WPW10177827. Search online using the part number only to find suppliers that suit you best.
